7 Allan Street

Set on the hill at 7 Allan Street, this one-bedroom cottage looks straight out to the Great Dividing Range. It has plenty of character, and the view is the first thing you'll notice.

Inside, the open-plan living, kitchen and dining area is functional and easy to live in, with a fat boy heater for winter. The bedroom is roomy and has built-in cupboards. The bathroom has laundry taps fitted and space for the washing machine. Outside, there's a private back deck and a big deck along the side and front, with a fernery at the rear.

The 4,935m2; block has room to spread out. The lockable 6 x 4m shed is powered and has water, gas and laundry taps, so it suits storage, tools or a workshop. An outdoor bath with hot and cold water adds some charm. Water comes from a 10,000L tank to the house and a 5,000L tank to the shed.

The established plantings make the block feel settled: Fruit and produce: producing grape vines, olive trees, mulberries (including a white mulberry), mandarin, bush lemon, feijoa, carob and a curry leaf tree Shade and feature trees: liquidambar, claret ash, Bunya pines, native peach and lilly pilly Around the house: a fernery, jade plants, orchids, gardenia and native frangipani
